May the Lord Almighty continue to bless you real good. Manyi PA-C I love your site and think that it is the most enjoyable studying resource that I have use so far. David PA-S Dear Stephen, I just want to take a moment and let you know how much I appreciate your website and the resources that you have made available to us. As I started preparing for my PANRE I realized it was going to take more than just reading the NCCPA blueprint topic areas. For the last 6 years I focused on being a mom and I chose to push the pause button on my PA career. I am thrilled to say that I passed my PANRE and this was possible because of your question style reviews and testing. This has been my favorite method to prepare for recertification. Ive taken the PANRE 3 times in the last 20 years and this time around I would not have been ready without thePAlife. Thank you for creating a great site thats affordable!! Aida Scanlon PA-C Im a PA student graduating in December and taking my PANCE about 4 weeks from now. Your website has become one of my favorite study tools, so thanks for all your work in putting that together! Caitlin Anderson, PA-S First of all, thank you so much for all of the resources you have made available for those of us studying for the PANRE! This is fabulous and wish Id known about it sooner.   Kristin F. PA-C Just passed my PANRE. I wanted to say that it was entirely due to your review material and podcasts. Thanks! Shaun Johnson PA-C I graduated from PA school in May and failed my first attempt at the PANCE in July. I was not nearly as prepared as I should have been and in the following 90 days, I developed into a completely different PA. I listened to all of your podcasts, took every practice test (at least once), and got both the daily question emails and the daily eponym emails. My second attempt at the PANCE was earlier in October and I went into it with so much more confidence than I had after receiving the news that I failed the first time. I really appreciate all the work you do to make studying for the PANCE fun well at least tolerable and I will definitely recommend your program to next years graduating class. Thank you! thank you! thank you! Christopher M., PA-C This is the absolute best way to prep for the PANRE. I have worked as PA-C since 1999. Family Practice is my area of expertise. My first time I decided not to study and take the test and see how I would do. I barely missed passing the test. A little frustrating but not a big deal. Now it is time to study. I looked at a number of systems and decided to use SmartyPANCE and the PA Life Academy. I did modify it by just taking test questions over a two month period and allowing the questions to teach me. I easily passed and improved my score by over 50 points. My take away is to continue the daily questions Stephen sends out and then taking tests and researching areas I need to shore up. Thanks Stephen for a practical approach to PANRE. Gregory Bickel, PA-C I took my boards for the 7 th time on Monday. I work in pediatrics for the past 20 years. I used your site and a review book to prepare. I think your site is fantastic and a bargain . I just found out I passed.  Thank you! Mark Leinwand, PA-C Good morning. I purchased a three-month trial of SMARTYPANCE with the hopes of using it as an adjunct to other study materials that I had purchased. Almost immediately, I ditched everything else and used your website exclusively. I work full time and I have two little ones at home, so just like everyone else, it was hard for me to manage my time. My certification is ending this year and I timed it so that if I didn’t pass, I’d have another opportunity to re-take it in December if I failed. I just found out this morning that I passed my PANRE! I studied for one {stressful} month, and though I wouldn’t advise cramming everything in such a short period of time, your website really helped me so much. Thank you for putting all of this content out there for us. You are amazing! Jenssen Parungao, PA-C
